New Gotham, Robinson Park - Friday evening

[blondecanary]

After a Thanksgiving spent with her entire family-- none of whom had gone missing yet-- Dinah had needed time to process the disappearances, trying to separate out the feelings, trying to remember what happened.

Momoko was updating her notes. More negatives, more questions. Names, dates, theories... the only thing she didn't have? Answers.

Okay, so she was staring at the screen, trying to will Warren's name out of the "People gone" column. Shut up, he was still totally close to her heart.

She reached for her phone, texting only because she wasn't sure if Dinah was... available.

Another ex-Fandom resident gone. Warren Peace. Tuessday.

Momoko voiced her final fear. "What if Fandom isn't safe? If the people from there aren't safe..."

"Do we know anyone from there? No. Nobody who grew up there, anyway. They're safe." They had to be. There was only so much helplessness Dinah could contemplate without breaking down. "Nobody has disappeared off the Island yet. Everything's still there." She swallowed. It would give them a place to work from, if it lasted longer, at the very least. "And Jaime's world is safe, and we don't know how many others are, because they probably don't know what's happening, so. Yeah."

Luckily Dinah was in New Gotham, because Momoko would totally be glomping her right now if she could. "Thank you. I... I've been feeling so helpless; doing this alone is totally getting to me."

"Right." Dinah took another breath. "So. Do what we can. Be ready. Pass along the info..." Her voice softened. "And know that I'm giving you mental hugs and wish I was there and when I do see you again, we're having ice cream for an hour first before we tackle all this."

[heromaniac]

"Make it two hours of ice cream and you totally have a deal." Momoko agreed. "Be careful, okay?"

[blondecanary]

"I will," Dinah promised, then even softer, "You too."

It was getting harder and harder to hang up on these calls. Just in case.... "Love you, Momoko."

[heromaniac]

Definitely.

"Love you too, Dinah. See you soon."
